Calling all Bells – past, present and future – along with families and friends of the school: you’re invited!

To celebrate 175 years since our founding as the oldest secondary school in California, we’re throwing a party you won’t want to miss! Join us on Saturday, May 9th, from 3 to 7 p.m. for the first-ever Bell-a-Palooza: a carnival-esque community celebration filled with music, food, fun, and endless Bell pride! 

If you loved Fan Fest last fall, Bell-a-Palooza will bring that same energy, but bigger. Here’s what you can expect on May 9th:

🎵 Live music and entertainment
🎨 Face painting and a caricature artist
🎯 Kids’ games and family-friendly activities
🏰 Bounce houses for our youngest Bells
🧢 Bellarmine swag and anniversary surprises
🍺 A beer & wine garden featuring special 175th anniversary collaborations
🍔 Delicious food from local vendors 

Admission to Bell-a-Palooza is free and open to all, so save the date now and keep an eye out for more details coming soon!

We can’t wait to celebrate 175 years of Bellarmine with you. Go Bells!
